We'll probably also need a logcat(android system log).

19.0 is broken in many ways.
Go to HOME
settings-apps-KODI-uninstall
----
Go to kodi from KODI home get 18.9 put it on a stick
--
GO to HOME
-appinstaller?? on mine maybe different on other boxes but you get the idea
-SD card
-kodi 18.9
-install it
-Setup network as normal. using SMB browse as it works fine with 18.9

reinstall kodi
And start over.

First, check in settings - services - smb service set minimum version to v1 and maximum to v3 as others have said.

Then go to add library sources
-Hit browse then choose "Add Network Location"
(Browsing the network for SMB shares does not work anymore so you have to enter the settings manually)

-Choose Windows network SMB as the protocol
-For server name, enter the IP address of your NAS or file server (Entering the computer name did not work)
-Enter the username and password if you have password protected file sharing enabled
- leave shared folder blank at first to test. You can browse all the shares on the machine afterwards to your library

I was able to remove the user account password and it continued to work and I never had password protected sharing turned on.

That did it here as well, everything working as it should now.

• Make sure your NAS has a static IP
  
• In SMB settings in Kodi, change the minimum required version to SMB1 if you don't currently have a value there
  
• Go into file explorer in Kodi and add a source to connect to your NAS share via IP. For example for SMB it would be smb://123.123.1.123/my_share or something like that. I think you need to use a username and password. In any case, I am.
  
• Navigate to your profiles directory. Copy passwords.xml and sources.xml to your share.
  
• Backup your library to your NAS as a single file
  
• Make a backup copy of all the stuff you copied to your NAS in case you need to restore them: the sources, passwords and the library backup.
  
• In each of passwords.xml, sources.xml and videodb.xml in your backup folder, using a text editor find and replace your_server_name with the IP address of your server, e.g, 123.123.1.123.
  
• Copy passwords.xml and settings.xml back to Kodi and restart Kodi.
  
• Import your library by pointing to the backup folder where you edited videodb.xml.
  
• Clean you library to remove duplicate entries that are referencing your server name instead of IP. This might take awhile if you have a large library so don't panic.

After the upgrade, Kodi (Android) no longer can see netwok resources using SMB. In previous versions, you would see "WORKGROUP" and then drill down to the resource you wanted.

If you select the file shortcut that were migrated from V18, you get the the error "Software caused connection aborted".

Is this a known problem? Is there a fix in the pipeline?

Settings -> Services -> SMBclient -> Minimum = V1, Maximum = V1.

Settings -> Services -> SMBclient -> Minimum = V1, Maximum = V3

If you leave the minimum at 0 it doesn't seem to pickup the range correctly. Just looks like a bug in the code.
